Finding columns using all_tab_columns

837064Feb 4 2011 — edited Feb 5 2011
I am using oracle 11g and i am having trouble finding a column name using all_tab_coulmns .Basically i dont know the exact name of the column and i used wild card in the where clause but i seems line wild card doesnt work.Could this be because of the reason that the column names are case sensitive.Query that i used is listed below.

select * from all_tab_columns where column_name='%sequence%'.What i wanted out of this query was, all the columns that have 'sequence' in it and FYI i used uppercase as well.
